+ Bjoern has a nice write-up of how to debug it here:
i.e. sommat like
a) just move that out of dev-tools into bin or solenv/bin
b) tweak it to honour $COLORTERM/$TERM -e
c) add a handle SIGPIPE nostop noprint pass
d) get the definitely correct pid in there

e) get the tooling to catch the disconnected error and say that
LibreOffice crashed, rather than the current somewhat obscure error
f) spit out a line liner to rerun the first failing test in isolation
with soffice server under gdb
Hmm, I just had another crazy idea, since we are mostly interested in
two things from the junit test:
- does the product work as expected?
that works reasonably well as long as the test doesnt crash
however crashes are icky to detect reliable "from the outside"
- if it crashes, we want to have a backtrace
However, we are not so much interested in interactively working with
soffice in the subsequenttest. So how about a very old fashioned and
almost forgotten way to debug: creating a core dump!
For bonus points one could then even print the stacktrace of a crashed
test right from "make subsequentcheck".
Opinions?
Best,
Bjoern
